Objective: to determine the profile of pregnancies and prevalence of adherence to puerperal consultation among adolescent puerperal women compared to non-adolescent puerperal women served in an outpatient clinic of a teaching hospital in the rural area of Minas Gerais. Method: cross-sectional study nested in a cohort of puerperal women; non-probabilistic sample, by convenience; adolescent pregnancy - dependent variable; sociodemographic, clinical and obstetric - independent variables. It employed its own instrument, tested by means of a pilot test. Prevalence ratios and confidence intervals were calculated; chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests were applied, considering a significance level of 5%, and Poisson regression with robust variance. Results: we interviewed 121 puerperal women, of which 18.2% (22) were adolescents, and observed among them low educational level (p<0.001); fewer pregnancies with pathologies (p=0.016); predominance of primiparous women (p<0.001), and higher rates of normal delivery (p=0.032). The prevalence of adherence to puerperal consultation was 34.7% and 31.8% for adolescents. There were no differences regarding adherence and age of puerperal women. Conclusion: adolescents did not present negative obstetric and neonatal outcomes, although a lower educational level was observed. Association was found between early age and absence of diseases during pregnancy and higher rates of normal vaginal deliveries. Adherence to puerperal return visit was slightly lower, but without statistical significance.
Resumo Objetivo: identificar o perfil das gestações e prevalência de adesão à consulta puerperal entre puérperas adolescentes comparadas a não adolescentes, assistidas em um ambulatório de hospital de ensino do interior de Minas Gerais. Método: estudo transversal aninhado a uma coorte de puérperas; amostra não probabilística, por conveniência; gestação na adolescência - variável dependente; sociodemográficas, clínicas e obstétricas - variáveis independentes. Utilizado instrumento próprio, testado mediante piloto. Calculadas razões de prevalência e intervalos de confiança; aplicados testes qui-quadrado e exato de Fisher, considerando nível de significância de 5%, e regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. Resultados: entrevistadas 121 puérperas, 18,2% (22) adolescentes, verificou-se entre elas baixa escolaridade (p<0,001); menor número de gestações cursando com patologias (p = 0,016); predomínio de primíparas (p<0,001) e maiores índices de parto normal (p = 0,032). A prevalência de adesão à consulta puerperal foi de 34,7% e de 31,8% para adolescentes. Não houve diferenças em relação à adesão e idade das puérperas. Conclusão: adolescentes não apresentaram desfechos obstétricos e neonatais negativos, embora tenha sido observada menor escolaridade. Identificou-se associação entre idade precoce e ausência de doenças na gestação e maiores índices de partos vaginais normais. A adesão ao retorno puerperal apresentou-se pouco inferior, porém sem significância estatística.
Resumen Objetivo: identificar el perfil de embarazos y la prevalencia de adherencia a las consultas puerperales entre madres adolescentes frente a las no adolescentes, atendidas en un hospital clínico universitario en el interior de Minas Gerais (Brasil). Método: estudio transversal anidado en un grupo de puérperas; muestra no probabilística, por conveniencia; embarazo adolescente - variable dependiente; variables sociodemográficas, clínicas y obstétricas- variables independientes. Se utilizó instrumento propio, prueba piloto. Se calcularon razones de prevalencia e intervalos de confianza; Se aplicaron las pruebas chi-cuadrado y exacta de Fisher, considerando un nivel de significancia del 5%, y regresión de Poisson con varianza robusta. Resultados: se entrevistaron a 121 puérperas, el 18,2% (22) eran adolescentes, siendo confirmado entre ellas una baja escolaridad (p<0,001); menor número de embarazos con patologías (p = 0,016); predominando las primíparas (p<0,001) y mayores tasas de parto normal (p = 0,032). La prevalencia de adherencia a la consulta puerperal fue del 34,7% y de 31,8% en adolescentes. No hubo diferencias en cuanto a la adherencia y la edad de las puérperas. Conclusión: las adolescentes no presentaron resultados obstétricos y neonatales negativos, aunque se observó menor escolaridad. Se identificó una asociación entre la edad precoz y la ausencia de enfermedades durante el embarazo y mayores tasas de partos vaginales normales. La adherencia al retorno puerperal fue ligeramente inferior, pero sin significación estadística.
Objective To carry out the cultural adaptation of the Special Needs Kids Questionnaire into Brazilian Portuguese and assess its reliability. Methods Methodological study conducted between September 2019 and June 2020 from the stages of translation, back-translation, content validation, semantic validation and pilot test. Content Validation Index, Cronbach's Alpha Coefficient and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient were calculated. Results After the second round, the adapted version had a Content Validation Index greater than 0.80 in all items and was considered understandable by the mothers. The pilot test included 89 mothers of children born prematurely from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in the test and 44 in the retest. All items had Cronbach's Alpha greater than 0.70. Of the 20 items, 15 showed moderate reliability, three high and two weak. Conclusion The instrument proved to be reliable and has the potential to identify the fragmentation and discontinuity of the care received.
